If $$f(x)=\left|\begin{array}{ccc} 2 \cos ^4 x & 2 \sin ^4 x & 3+\sin ^2 2 x \\ 3+2 \cos ^4 x & 2 \sin ^4 x & \sin ^2 2 x \\ 2 \cos ^4 x & 3+2 \sin ^4 x & \sin ^2 2 x \end{array}\right|,$$ then $\frac{1}{5} f^{\prime}(0)=$ is equal to :

  1. A 2
  2. B 1
  3. C 0 Correct answer
  4. D 6

Solution

<p>$$\begin{aligned} & \left|\begin{array}{ccc} 2 \cos ^4 x & 2 \sin ^4 x & 3+\sin ^2 2 x \\ 3+2 \cos ^4 x & 2 \sin ^4 x & \sin ^2 2 x \\ 2 \cos ^4 x & 3+2 \sin ^2 4 x & \sin ^2 2 x \end{array}\right| \\ & \mathrm{R}_2 \rightarrow \mathrm{R}_2-\mathrm{R}_1, \mathrm{R}_3 \rightarrow \mathrm{R}_3-\mathrm{R}_1 \\ & \left|\begin{array}{ccc} 2 \cos ^4 x & 2 \sin ^4 x & 3+\sin ^2 2 x \\ 3 & 0 & -3 \\ 0 & 3 & -3 \end{array}\right| \\ & \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=45 \\ & \mathrm{f}^{\prime}(\mathrm{x})=0 \\ & \end{aligned}$$</p>
